Who doesn’t love pizza? I sure do. Make it better by skipping the extra calories and trying my health-ified pizza recipes. They’re delicious, healthy, diet-friendly and super easy to make.

Cauliflower-Crust Pizza

Pizza crust made without flour? Yes, please! Use my clever trick of swapping in cauliflower to make a lower-carb pie your family will devour. Each slice contains just 155 calories while providing 16 grams of protein and three grams fiber. Nice deal! Watch the video above to see just how easy it is to make.

Sweet Potato Crust Pizza


This pizza dish was inspired by Lorin Cook, of Alpine, New Jersey, winner of the TODAY show’s "Grape Expectations" recipe contest. I love how she incorporated nutrient-packed sweet potato in the crust (so creative) and loaded up each slice with so many good-for-you veggies. It’s a healthier alternative than dialing up delivery!
